Andy McKee - Heather's Song

[Jacc0s]

Why is there a Lady Gaga picture right next to the video ??

[TheJackAssReJects]

@Jacc0s thats the devil in disguise .. lady gaga = devil in disguise .. we must burn here before its to late.

[agb591]

2:04 wrong?, I do not care..... (face)

[Gibson030490]

Does anybody know if this is standard tuning or DADGAD?

[AnderUnplugged]

@Gibson030490 its standard tuning but down a full step

[hjohnson96]

2 people are jealous of Heather.......or sad about the beard

[wanswers]

If a random person in the world will die when you click the like button, would you still click it? The answer is yes.

[WarriorOfTheHeavens]

Anyone noticed that Andy's Greenfield Guitar is Green at the back of the body and on the ribs of the guitar! : D

[Insinneratorthrash]

He probably could have played Heather any other song he wrote and still gotten laid.

[masteircheef]

@Insinneratorthrash ?

[connordavidmccrystal]

@Insinneratorthrash Heather is his sister...



[MrYoureAdouche]

@connordavidmccrystal What's wrong with fucking your sister if you're Andy Mckee?

[MrMachuno]

This man must have a wonderful soul .. :)

[Nickempff]

this guy is simply amazing... imagine jamming with him for a day?

[nonamer1995]

@Nickempff my thoughts exactly

[MJPodcasts]

From Metal Head to Acoustic Master, Andy McKee is simply amazing!

[sinfulomnivore2]

one person is jealous because he cant play and that´s why he doesn´t get any girls!!

[redscarfboy]

I got Art Of Motion for Christmas, came this song and just couldn't imagine how the heck he was doing what he was doing, so I had to watch this video to see if it was humanly possible to play this song all at one time on a single guitar. All I can say is: wow.

[s3x0fd34Th]

i dont like how all the melodies are very subtle, you hear a bit too much of everything

[tlawless001]

holy shit fuck! my brother showed me this song a long time ago but i thought he was annoying at the time so i didnt really pay attention to the song. now that im listening to it, im really angry that i never listened

[cmccusker10]

he should do a collaboration with kaki king

[daplayer]

@cmccusker10 Kaki and Andy... Awesome sauce!

[foreversing14]

I Like It Because My Names Heather(:

[09icecold]

twelve million dollars i will bet that the person who disliked this did it on accident and likely commited suicide after

[bloodstein1]

...(too awsome to speak)

[awseome123456789ize]

wonder who was the one looser that unliked

[kiwinistevie]

who in the world could possibly dislike this?

[JamesPaterson2395]

lol his "normal" guitars look weird now

[ChrisK3177]

@JamesPaterson2395 With Andy nothing is normal :P this guitar may seem normal but it actually is a baritone guitar, that's why this song has the sweet deep sound.

[xToXii]

The hair on his head moved to his chin;

Just to hear the guitar better.

[halfro117]

one man band.Percussion,"bass",and lead,wish i could play like this!

[HeatherJammin]

Ahh... My favorite acoustic song. :)

[RippinSkullz]

For anyone having ad problems, try out Ad-Block, so fast and easy to download, nothing shows up.

[megadidac]

buenisimo.

[merahute]

Super Sweet, Andy is obviously enjoying playing this...it's an expression of love for someone. Once you get to a certain place with a skill/talent, the work ends for the most part, and the journey of true expression begins in earnest. Thanks Andy....and Christen for sending this along. TZ

[electricalnetworks]

How can he enjoy and play that stuff at the same time...either u play or u just enjoy...

[lofwenmark]

@electricalnetworks Obviously you're not a musician since that claim is dead wrong:/ To be a good musician it's required to "enjoy" the music while you play it.

Or you will end up as Justin Bieber!

[electricalnetworks]

@lofwenmark  I am one...I just meant that this thing is a lot 2 play and theres lots to be concentrating on...I didnt mean it in the literal sense ..i know musicians are suppose to enjoy and stuff...but when i play this i can just play it and not really enjoy ...it will be a while when i do both

[babolatpdtp]

@lofwenmark I'm pretty sure he meant it as a compliment in that even though the piece is so complicated, McKee can just play and enjoy it as opposed to focusing on the notes making sure not to mess up like so many of the cover artists do.

[infinitcode2]

Fucking lady gaga creepin on me all the time

[sephyr242]

3:30 FLAWLESS VICTORY.

[keglimp]

there's a picture of a poofter to the left to the left

[robostomo1]

i see no ads, only amazing music..

[DannyKKoren]

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE

....

dis video

[The3DancingBananas]

somebody introduce this guy to a guitar pick so he stops making me look like shit.

[DiabolusIgnis]

@The3DancingBananas Why don't you learn to finger pick, instead? ;) It's better to have a virtuoso and someone good rather than have two bad ones. ^^ Besides, using a pick isn't bad. You could play songs like Under A Violet Moon by Blackmore's Night, for example. I play both by finger and with a pick, and that song I always use a pick for.

[intheflesh316]

is that a greenfield guitar?

[MrPatrik17797]

This is my favorite song



[wearefoREVerfiction]

This is true music

[barrynaylor1435]

I dated a chick named Heather when I first discovered Andy Mckee and the rest over at CandyRat.

Now when I listen to this song, It reminds me of her. Good and bad I guess.

This song is of orgasmic proportions.

[JoToCa13]

who ever disliked this please fall in a ditch

[cncdaddy]

@JoToCa13 agreed

[ZacVrono]

@JoToCa13 i think the dislike was from Chuck Noris. he can get jealous too.

[hdci123]

@JoToCa13 spike pit****

[bluebluer444]

@27callum ; @kezmondo ; @HitaroX ; @AydanJHooper

it's standard baritone tuning

[JayRobbyn187]

Yea man, This guy here.... inspires me

[GuitarMelodiesSB]

The music is great, the advertisements are excruciatingly painful

[Piitschii]

@GuitarMelodiesSB I love living in Switzerland... no ads on youtube for me.. ;)

[RichardBatchelor86]

Love this guy, everything he does is just incredible. :)

[Three4me]

He's Amazing! but... his original version of this song was quite a bit better.

[glennswindler24]

285 join forces, to kill 1.

[Estebantropo]

Just great!! This guy is crazy!!

[gavenwd]

Hey i am getting married on Sept 17th and my future wife wants to walk down the isle to this song. Wanna come play it live?

[Sadusteein]

I get a all-around goosebump invasion on my whole body listening to this!!!?!?!? IS THIS NORMAL!?!?!?

[WTFitsJimmy]

@Sadusteein yes it is!!! feelin the emotion of the song

[vuslandal]

HOLY SHIT the first person that deserves to be on VEVO

[sjf905]

pre-VEVO: 4,039 ??

As of today, rpoland's version has 2,101,614 hits. While I appreciate VEVO giving non-mainstream musicians a stage, don't brag as if you're making stars. Candyrat is making stars.

[yahhhshroom]

@sjf905 id much rather watch andy mckee without lady gagas nasty mug looking me in the face....

[sjf905]

@yahhhshroom Exactly, that gaga dude looks like a chick. Unfortunately, I like this version slightly more so I have to full screen it

[TyMeadorMusic]

"i listened to Andy McKee and i JIZZED IN MY PANTS!!!!!!!!!!"

[27callum]

does anybody know what tuning this is in?

[Gintama520]

@27callum standard tunning but using a baritone guitar

[kezmondo]

@27callum B standard to be exact

[HitaroX]

@kezmondo isn't it Asus7?

[AydanJHooper]

@27callum ; @kezmondo ; @HitaroX

It's a standard tuning maybe one step down

[smafu9]

I'm a Fingerstyle guitarist myself, i discovered Andy a few days ago and this music is already inspiring new things into my own music.

Thank you Andy, you're music enlightens me.

[FDNYtruck103]

this guy has some crazy skills..makes me wanna start playing again

[2111redman]

@FDNYtruck103 how could you stop playing the guitar!?!?! its one of the ten commandments.. dont you know that?! haha

[FDNYtruck103]

@2111redman haha i dont know why im busy alot with the Marines and Fire dept but im gonna pick up playing again it relaxes me i only wish i could play as good as Andy

[Destructo4444]

this song shouldnt be called heathers song it should be called "listen & vomit diarier from your eyes out of jealousy"

[MrMike91210]

when he dies im claiming his brain and fingers lol

[ARMYRANGER217]

dude ur a beast at the guitar!!! keep it up!!!

[pjotr60dvd]

@jimmypaged259 Heather Nova?

[ethanbrochill]

it takes me like 10 trys to get one harmonic right...never mind 5..

[voiceotf]

is that a Greenfield guitar?

[HedarrStew]

Heather's song needs lyrics. </3

[killyourself4earth]

wow, a more boring repeat of repetitiveness. now with ads. this fat piece of shit isn't worth ads. looks like some psycho who never got over his high school girlfriend

[TongueSnap]

@killyourself4earth ...story of your life

[someperson1001]

@jsbaker6415 Don't feed the troll.

[voiceotf]

@killyourself4earth at least he has musical ability which is probably more than you can say, if you don't like something just hit the dislike button and move on, nobody cares to see your negative comments

[GarretsShadow]

@killyourself4earth looks like someones jealous.....

[risla001]

@killyourself4earth

Dude you've been trolling on all Andy's videos. Just how about you go do what your name says because we really don't need morons like you. 

[Titus0RA]

he lost weight. suits him.

[2moltzZ]

and who said my name aint awesome...?!!

[NickGimacutU]

VEVO recordings have bad highs...... for such a big company you think they would have better audio engineers..... Fat Rat sounds soft and beautiful this stings.

[manuelirio]

I wish I had a gf named heather.. she will love to receive this from me

[rhybal09]

i love this his guitar, greenfield G4 very awsome...

[AnOrangeHat]

i want to be heather

[AntoineDufour]

This man's right hand is so freakin groovy!

[johnnytsunami17]

@AntoineDufour The fact that you commented on this video makes it that much cooler

[twodotsoveri]

@AntoineDufour Everything around this man is freakin groovy :D

[GarretsShadow]

@AntoineDufour so is yours!

[TtEkSoF]

@AntoineDufour dont forget the left!!

[TurkiyeCumhurbaskani]

I love Justin Bieber

[Arvon211]

@TurkiyeCumhurbaskani trolololololol

[guitarmeister109]

@TurkiyeCumhurbaskani why are you saying this in an Andy Mckee video? LOL XD

[TurkiyeCumhurbaskani]

@guitarmeister109 because it would be funny, :) 

[xxbrightxxstarxx]

This is by far my favorite by this master. :D

[69sweetbunny]

LOVELY

[NeverTellMeNo]

the amazing things that one can do with wood and strings....

[BlizzardRREVH]

Whoa, this is mindblowingly awesome. Imagine being able to sit down with an acoustic on your front porch and play that!

[hip142]

am i high, or is that guitar green?

[supern00b]

@hip142 sides are

[mexico3210]

Words fail. I've been a fan for some 3 years now, and I never fail to be amazed afresh by Andy's talent. Wonderful! That must be so fun to play.

[TheDJNaylor]

Oh my god yes. Blazing listening to this beauty is the best high in the world.

[TheSkeeter1956]

absoutley a seasoned guitarist. Andys heart and soul within what he plays echoes throughout the definition of song. This gentleman needs nothing more than what he is doing at present time. If he were to allow someone with heart to write lyrics to certain licks he himself wrote, his music would suddenly become an octive higher and more powerful than he would think they would ever be. ron carlstrom, attleboro ma

[Iraqnid2088]

@TheSkeeter1956

Sadly, its going to take a miracle to find a lyricist to sing to this, 2 Reasons

1) Lyrics might depreciate the instrumental value of this song, and make it not as beautiful.

2) Its pretty hard to sing to music that is an instrumental, as the melody tends to shift alot.

Either way, would be amazing to have it work out. :) I love this guys work

[PatrickRob82]

Stepping slowly away from my computer..... turning around...... picking up my guitar..... placing it in the trash......

[LLAGor1lla]

holy shit......anybody got a wetnap so i can clean up?!?

[persiasand]

only 48k views? Wtf is going on with music these days.

[BlizzZX]

this is the greatest song ive ever heard in my entire life

[onefishinabowl]

I love this song. It makes me wonder who "Heather" is every time I listen to this.

[mike52387]

@onefishinabowl its his sister

[gimuelgwapo]

Before I thought he was ShayCarl!

[speaker3600]

@gimuelgwapo HAHAHAHA XD

[inuyasha1kid]

he isn't wearing a wedding ring, i sure hope it's cause he had to take it off, or cause he doesn't want to settle down. cause i'm sure every woman loves this man.

[deidaraslut]

Let's all shut up and listen to this beautiful music.

When I listen to Mckee, I feel like the world is less of a shitty place.

[justinwuwuwu]

@Yourassisgoood @dragon21247 Smoke some weed and listen to Andy Mckee. Thank you.

[Yourassisgoood]

@justinwuwuwu Ahha, what do you think I'm doing. overreacting to some pussy, thats wut. I'm getting my stash.

[satchfreak]

@justinwuwuwu did that the other night lol

[TheNolet]

WTF WITH RIHANA!!

Damn Vevo ....

[SERIEZ1]

Andy Mckee is playing. No one thats commented stacks up including me. That is all.

[starglowe]

p.s. I love this guy. That is all.

[starglowe]

Holyyyyy shit guys, RELAX. Why do you take yourselves so seriously?! lol

[dead764]

Andy your amazing, But the ads piss me off.

Your my true inspiration!

[footnotedrummer]

I love Andy's music, and own every one of his albums. I was just introduced to Ewan Dobson, and OMG!... that guys incredible! Different form Andy, but incredible all the same.

His music is less melodic than Andy's for the most part... but his vurtuosity is astounding. Do yourself a favor and look him up, they're both on Candyrat.

[aaronrobinson4]

how can anyone dislike this?

[guitar12les]

This song is so good that literally only one troll in the entire world was troll enough to dislike it, or they just missed the like button.

[Sh3ikha]

beautiful! 

[VivaEnchilada]

Jesus can walk on water

Chuck Norris can swim through land

Andy McKee can kick both their asses

[JonJoProductions]

This is probably my favorite song by him.

It's so beautiful. 

[Seffeeyyy]

At first Rylynn was my favorite song by Andy McKee. But now, this is.

[awcouturier]

It's like his fingers just magnetically attract to all the right spots on the guitar...

EVERY DAMN TIME.

[bbasball40]

WOW!!! You are absolutely incredible man! Can't wait to see you in Cali on 1/15!

[EmeryN]

It's so easy to misjudge interpretation when we're filled with our own self. Adam's not an idiot. He's just very young... and he may never be old enough. I stumbled into the YouTube Abyss and came here through a very strange path. It's a lucky night when something like this happens out of the blue. Wonderful!

[ckfootballman]

Is it just me, or does that neck's scale just look REALLLLLLLY long??

[imstoned6]

@ckfootballman I believe that is because he plays this song on a baritone guitar, which is a lot like a regular steel string guitar on a slightly bigger scale tuned I think 4 steps down, so it's much lower and bassier.

[PsychoBeast1980]

@ckfootballman Most acoustics are like that. Well, at least by what I've seen. The type that you're probably thinking of is the jumbo guitars. And, the cutaway is sharp and clean, pronouncing the neck more.

[ckfootballman]

@PsychoBeast1980 I do think it is a baritone though, and it does look as if it has a jumbo's width. you can look at greenfield guitars and find out
